Draft:G. B. Key
| Submission declined on 9 November 2024 by Bonadea (talk). Please try to write full paragraphs. In addition to looking like a list of bullet points, the draft contains what looks like placeholder text – what is the reader supposed to make of sentence fragments like "Homer G. Phillips Hospital? Obstetrician and gynecologist? He made house calls." Judging by the source placed after that line, this is basically original research.
